| The Arnold Digital Loco Receivers
81200/81201 for N- and H0-scale: The
receivers(decoders) inside the locos listen to all
information that are transmitted via the tracks. Every
loco-decoder has its own number(like a name). So he knows
wether a piece of information that it receives contains a
command for itsself or for another receiver. Of course it
only executes commands concerning itsself. It transforms
it into pulses for the engine or it switches the
headlights on or off. The decoders memorizes the suitable
values for this special loco concerning the minimum
speed, the acceleration and deceleration delay and the
maximum speed. Even in climbing or descending a slope the
regulation of the decoder prevents the loco to accelerate
or to decelerate. An easy and simple electronical
programming tells the decoder all the values it has to
remember. You don't have to open the loco or even take it
away from the track! Durning the programmation the

programming and the possible values - and
this in your language! The differences between the H0-
and the N-scale loco decoders are the power outputs and
the dimensions. All other features are exactly the same.
The power output of the H0-scale decoder is 1500mA, the
output of the N-scale decoder is 750mA. So you can also
use the N-scale decoder for a small H0-scale locomotive
with low power consumption, if there is not enough space
inside the loco for the H0 decoder. All decoder power
outputs are protected against short-circuits. The decoder
recognizes a shor-circuit or an overload within
milliseconds and turns off the output. So a damage of the
decoder is prevented. After a short interruption the
decoder recovers automatically. The Loco
Receiver is compatible:
- runs on any layout following the NMRA rules
- runs on layouts controlled
by Märklin Digital(Motorola)
- runs on any convetional
DC-layout
